really? i thought there was a quake a year or so ago along the midwestern fault? or was that some midwest fat woman walking around? :ugh2:

:bowrofl::roflpuke2::bowrofl: nothing too serious, hell i never felt one. seems like everytime they do occur i'm sleeping. oh, we do have plenty of fat asss women running around

Just saw this article. Imminent earthquake between the dates of march 19th-26th. The evidence sounds pretty convincing. What do you guys think about this? All i can say is everybody be prepared. My prayers that this doesn't actually come to a head.

March 19th 2011 - Super Moon - Earthquake - Expert Sugession - Climetic Changes

On March 19, 2011 the Moon will pass by Earth at a distance of 356,577 kilometers – the closest pass in 18 years.

This is known as lunar perigee and a normal lunar perigee averaging a distance of 364,397 kilometers (226,425 miles) happens once every orbital period. The term \\”Supermoon\\” was coined by the astrologer Richard Nolle.



In short, Earth, Moon and Sun are all in a line, with Moon in its nearest approach to Earth.

The Supermoon occurred in 1955, 1974, 1992 and 2005 were amazing.

It is a scientific fact that when the Moon is at perigee there is more gravitational pull, creating higher tides or significant variations in high and low tides.

In addition, the tidal effect of the Sun’s gravitational field increases the Moon’s orbital eccentricity when the orbit’s major axis is aligned with the Sun-Earth vector.

The average tidal bulge closely follows the Moon in its orbit, and the Earth rotates under this tidal bulge in just over a day. Generally Tidal forces contribute to ocean currents, which moderate global temperatures by transporting heat energy toward the poles.

It has been suggested that in addition to other factors, harmonic beat variations in tidal forcing may contribute to climate changes.

From extreme coastal tides to severe storms to powerful earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, the entire natural world surges and spasms under the sway of the Supermoon alignment – within three days either way of the exact syzygy, as a general rule.

The effects on Earth from a Supermoon are minor, and according to the most detailed studies by terrestrial seismologists and volcanologists, the combination of the moon being at its closest to Earth in its orbit, and being in its ’full moon’ configuration (relative to the Earth and sun), should not affect the internal energy balance of the Earth since there are lunar tides every day.

The Earth has stored a tremendous amount of internal energy within its thin outer shell or crust, and the small differences in the tidal forces exerted by the moon (and sun) are not enough to fundamentally overcome the much larger forces within the planet due to convection and other aspects of the internal energy balance that drives plate tectonics.

The Supermoon 2011 will mean that it will be brighter and larger in the sky than other full moons, but some believe that the super moon is connected to natural disasters.

Past super moons have been connected to the Indonesian earthquake in 2005 and a massive flood in Australia in Earthquakes, storms, intense tidal activity are some of the probable disasters that the impending ’Supermoon’ or lunar perigee may trigger.

The moon will look much larger than normal especially when it rises on the eastern horizon at sunset, or given the right atmospheric conditions. Some astronomers are predicting that the Lunar Perigee event coinciding with a Full Mean will affect climate patterns on Earth.

Interesting....!

No, no, no I don't want to hear that. We moving to Murfreesboro in 2012!

No, the “supermoon” didn’t cause the Japanese earthquake | Bad Astronomy | Discover Magazine

North America, Japan and New Zealand are all on the edge of the Pacific Plate (Chili is not directly). So far the movement has only been along the western edge of the plate, but movement on the other side can't be ruled out, it's going to happen eventually although not necessarily when the quactologist says it will.

The reason why this type of fault is particularly dangerous is because once a critical point is reached, all those teeth break and the plates just shear as the energy is released. This has been a risk for decades, not really new news.

those tectonic plates need SRM :tup:

I agree it is sensationalism but everyone should be prepared for "SHTF" situations regardless.

Unlike Japan, if we are struck by some huge natural disaster the general public won't be as disciplined in the aftermath.

rebe945 03-19-2011 05:31 PM

Yep
 
Its going to happen, just when is the ? Remember the Earth is 5 billion yrs old and we have had a civilized, i say that lightly, society for only 2 thousand yrs. These events will happen. That fault off the NW coast will create a wave 100 ft high . Lights out boys. I guess im not gonna lower my Z.:gtfo2:

There was a quake about 3 years ago. It destroyed the Kentucky Derby Building. Wasn't too big, TBH. I thought my roommate was just using the laundry drier at 3AM lol.
